How to make a Cat Cape, an aid to medicating your cat.

A simple aid for medicating your pet cat. This low cost pet medication aid should save your hands from a lot of damage while you provide your cat care. Applying medications to your pets eyes, nose, or throat will be much easier.  We usually coral our cat between our knees one person holds the cat firmly trying to make sure the front paws don't come up and rip us apart, which of course has happened many times.  One of our cats manages to get ear mites frequently, it's very difficult to medicate both ears before she can squirm away.  The ear mite medication requires refrigeration which must make it very uncomfortable for the cat. The cat cape won't solve the problem of cold medicine but it will help you control your cat and avoid injury. If you need to give your cat medication perhaps the cat cape will be for you.

I apologize if you have found this page before I have completed this "How To". I hope to have this completed in about six weeks.

Thanks,
